Netanyahu: I hope Palestinians will come to senses, enter talks
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said at the start of the cabinet meeting on Sunday: "I hope that the Palestinians come to their senses and enter peace talks. The peace process is in the interest of Israel, and certainly of Palestine."
"We expressed willingness to do unprecedented things, but we are encountering the opposite trend on the other side – putting up preconditions that have not been posted since the beginning of the process 16 years ago," said Netanyahu, who added that US special envoy to the Middle East George Mitchell will be in Israel one additional day as part of his concentrated effort to restart negotiations.
